Moving franchise from OOTP 22 to 23

rink23 · 05-11-2022, 06:00 PM

I have just purchased 00TP23, but I can't remember how to move my St. Louis River Walkers franchise from one version to the next.
I have done it at least four times in the past -- I started it with 2018 -- but it's slipping my mind.
Any help would be appreciated.
Also, is there any way to move my franchise thread from Fictional 22 to Fictional 23.
It dates back to the 2033 season -- I just completed 2038 --and I'd like to keep it all in a single thread.

Not sure about the thread but in 23 when you load it up, it has a header to import a 22 season. Click that and you find your old season and click import. Should work well.

I know in the past people have recommended doing it in the off season, just a heads up. Not sure what happens though if you don't

Do it in the off-season. NOT mid-season.

Tx., I just completed my 2038 season and postseason award, so this would be a good time to make the transiton.

Hi - I've done this before (been playing since ootp16) but I never remember the steps to get my franchise from the current OOTP 22 to the new OOTP 24 (I know I have to use OOTP23, and I assume its fairly straight forward.

HOWEVER - I see posted on a couple of threads that I shouldn't do this mid season, and I'm wonder why that is - is it a precaution - or does the move potentially mess up stats and teams and other important things to my franchise/ league?

Any thoughts or advice on doing this would be really appreciate. Thanks

I've seen it mess up play throughs (specifically real transactions in historical). I think that the OOTP manual says right after the playoffs is the best time to do it.
